In support of #worldbreastfeedingweek we want to highlight the need to protect and promote women’s access to breastfeeding resources. Breastfeeding is an emotional journey and having access to services that support mamas during this time is imperative. Ultimately everyone has their own breastfeeding story, and no matter how your baby was fed, the strength we have as mamas is incredibly inspiring 💕 📷 @scdesigns_

It's been a minute since we've posted "Moments into Memories with Smitten Films" but we're thrilled to bring this back, and especially excited to be featuring @jassnow and her family for the month of July. These days more than ever we are all dreaming of vacation, and watching the Snow family relishing those summer beach days and seeing those smiles gives us all the feels. Summer travel may look different this year, but we can still dream about the days ahead and where we want to travel to. Where's the first place you and your family will be headed when days are sunnier? Share below so we can get dreaming ☁️
Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads who bring us all joy and laughter each day. Father's Day is one of our most special seasons at Smitten Films. This year especially, we have felt pure joy seeing all the adorable moments between dads and their kids while making Father's Day films for our clients. Check out this sweet video one family made for their dad to remind him just how special he is 💕 #happyfathersday #dadlife
Memorial Day weekend may have looked a little different this year, but the opportunity to explore a new hiking trail, start a new book you've been dying to read, and create memories with your family are still very much open. While many vacations have been cancelled the past few months, it's important to shift our perspective and appreciate these uninterrupted days we'll never get back. Today and everyday we’re grateful to those who have sacrificed so much for our country 🇺🇸 Check out this fun video of @lisa.k.ridd and her family learning to make ice cream together as they make the most of this long weekend and celebrate family time 🍦#memorialdayweekend2020 #familymemories #grateful
Grateful to all the heroes who are on the frontlines fighting this pandemic ❤️ THANK YOU 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #nyctough #clapbecausewecare #healthcareworkers
Recently Smitten's founder, @lisa.k.ridd, had the privilege of sitting down with @theideamix to speak to her journey of launching Smitten Films, the challenges she's overcome, and what she's learned along the way. As we listen to her podcast and are reminded of how far Smitten has come, from Lisa hiring the first employee 2 1/2 years in, to now overseeing a team of mom's behind Smitten's storytelling, we couldn't be more proud to call her our fearless leader. Check out our stories to hear from our founder and get a sneak peek from her recording session with BTS footage.

This sweet First Year film serves as another reminder for how quickly the time passes in a baby’s first year. As time goes on and your child begins to do new things it can be difficult to remember back to the days when they were just learning how to roll over, crawl, and babble, as cute as it is. A First Year Smitten Film captures those priceless milestones and ensures you have those memories to relive forever. Bring back those baby memories and check out our link in bio for how you can start your child’s First Year Smitten Film today. We’re currently offering $100 off First Year Films for the month of February so don’t wait! (first time clients, Director's Cut only). #newbornmoments #babysfirstyear #replayreliverepeat
*PRO TIP* We've said it before, and we'll say it again: It's SO important to shoot horizontal when capturing photos and videos. The devices that we watch content on are widescreen, so if your videos and images are vertical there will be a lot of blank space on either side of the imagery. Plus shooting horizontally allows you to capture much more of what you see and gives you a wider canvas. #shoothorizontal #photographytips #photographytipsandtricks
We loved working with the warm and kind @allierizzo on a film of her snuggly son Henry’s first six months. 👶🏼 Allie commissioned this film as a holiday gift and can’t wait to watch it with her husband, parents and in-laws this Christmas. 🎄 While we make many, many Year in Review films for a baby’s first year, we are also always happy to make a film recapping a shorter amount of time (like Henry’s first six months) - especially when there’s an occasion like Christmas that makes the film especially apropos. We know Allie already felt overwhelmed by the amount of footage she had captured of Henry in the first six months alone... and felt pretty relieved to have Smitten come in and get her organized and celebrating her memories! And now she’s got an amazing holiday gift to give all the people she loves most, too!
Still looking for that special gift for your spouse, parents or in-laws this year? We can honestly say that a Year In Review film is the most thrilling gift for a family who wants to treasure and celebrate all the fun-filled times they shared together in 2018. We can do a film of your year or of a special family trip. These digital heirlooms will be loved for generations! Contact us to create your film today, or to buy a gift card so that your loved one can make one with us in 2019.
We know how important your family memories are to you. 👨👩👧👦 This holiday season, @smittenfilms and @masonlane_art are coming together to bring you two beautiful ways to enjoy those memories and give an unforgettable holiday present 🎁 to your family. 🎺🎉

To all the lovely mamas following us, this one ☝🏼☝🏼is for YOU! We collaborated with our favorite fellow Tribeca mama, @mamaandtata, and @kiralovest to bring you our first ever #smittenproduction celebrating all the hard work you do and the beautiful love you spread. We learned a few important things shooting this video: 1) your kids love and appreciate you just the way you are 2) we love how they are always noticing/loving on us, just like we are always noticing/loving on them (after all, what is love but really paying attention to that person and their needs) 3) reinforced what we already knew - that moms are EVERYTHING and 4) that we are ready to roll out more #smittenproduction, so drop us a line to enquire more about what this entails. Happy Mother’s Day to all you lovely mamas out there, doing what is you do best…you (ps - head over to @mamaandtata, she is sponsoring a great Mother’s Day giveaway today and pps check out our stories to some more #bts from the shoot!). #mothersday #thesmittenlife #productionlife
Smitten Films x Mother Untitled
On this first day of 2018, we're honored to share a Smitten First Years Film that we recently made for Mother Untitled founder Neha Leela Ruch. The videos and images of her son Bodie's first two years are adorable, but the images of Neha laughing, cheers-ing and dancing her way into motherhood are equally delightful. What a beautiful celebrations of the new chapters they have both walked into! Here's to your new journeys in 2018 and all that lies ahead. Happy New Year!
Brrr it’s getting cold out there! Hope this image will warm you up... Have you ever seen someone so snuggly? Could someone get this little lady some cocoa please?
#alltheholidayfeels as we get into the month of December! Try this #smittentip while you put up your holiday decorations: prop up your phone, set it to time lapse, walk away and get all hands on deck (and yes, expect funny faces to the camera from 8 year olds)! So much love and so much fun.
Wishing you a warm and fuzzy Thanksgiving with love, apples, and Smitten-worthy memories. That should do it. #happythanksgiving2017 #theonesthatyoulove #thesmittenlife
Fall thank goodness you've made it 🍁! We were watching family film clips 🎬 like this on repeat because we missed you so much.

And there are few things as magical✨ or bring as much joy and laughter as playing with your sister in a big pile of leaves🍂. Can you feel the ❤️between these two? #thesmittenlife #capturemomentslikethese #yourjoyforever

The Kelleher Boys Annual Highlight Film
Thanks so much Robin for letting us share this amazing mini version of your 4th (!) annual highlight film with our community. We are so inspired by your loving and playful approach to motherhood and your beautiful boys.
When shooting #familytrip footage, take a moment to get a few "establishing shots" of your new location 🏞🌆🌉. When you look back, you will be instantly transported to the majestic scenery and that magical time with your family! ✨✨✨✨ 📹@toastandcandy #tellyourstory #beholdyourbliss #fromthearchives

SUMMER is: prime time for memory making - pool parties 🏊, barbecues 🍔, and family time. When you take your phone out to capture all the fun, make sure to hold it HORIZONTALLY! It might feel a little awkward at first, but it’s totally worth it. Here’s why: If you shoot horizontally, your image is captured wide screen, just like 💻 and 📺 screens and when you watch that footage on a 💻 or 📺 screen, the image will fill the screen beautifully (no more awkward black strips on either side like with vertical images). Now get out there and shoot (you can thank us later!!!). #smittentips #getsmitten #makememories TAG A FRIEND who could use this tip! 👇🏼👇🏼
